Fire Horse

Revered in Chinese culture as one of 12 influential lunar zodiac signs, those born in the Year of the Horse are said to be loyal, hard-working, outgoing and generous.
Each year, the lunar animal is associated with one of the five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. 2026 is the Year of the Fire Horse, and those born under this sign are known for their energetic and determined personalities. 1966 was the most recent occurrence of the Fire Horse lunar year, with famous figures such as actor Adam Sandler, chef Gordon Ramsay, and singer Janet Jackson born during this time.
